On another busy Thursday evening, Ethan and Casey were working on Mr. Stevenson's case together. Solving difficult cases side by side came naturally for both of them. Team meetings were all fine,but neither Baz or June can deny the fact that It's Ethan and Casey who solve 90% of the team's cases together. Every single staff of Edenbrook will admit that they make a very good team. But somehow, after the confession from both of this brilliant doctors,their bond was stronger than ever. The awkward tension,guilt,hurt, fleeting touches and longing glances were replaced with love,affection, understanding,soft smiles and *secret makeout or cuddle sessions* (of course behind closed doors and away from the prying eyes). Later that night, after finishing up with the case,Casey busies herself collecting her scattered things whlie Ethan reaches and grasps her left hand,lacing their fingers together. They share a soft smile,their eyes locking. Ethan strokes the skin resting beneath his hand with his thumb, offering, "Hey Rookie,what do you think about joining me tonight for dinner?" She quirks one eyebrow at him, "Just dinner? Or...??" Ethan smirks, "Why an 'or'? Just dinner isn't enough? What else do you wish, huh?" She pretends to ponder a bit her eyes gleaming with mischief,"What about some 'Dessert'?". "We'll see. But atop of everything..." He lets out a heavy breath,"We need to talk. About - 'Us'........" Her shoulders slump a bit,"Is everything alright, Ethan? " . "It is,don't worry! Just change into some comfortable clothes and we'll head out". Soon after,Casey changes into a blush hoodie and black leggings in which she felt comfortable. She reaches where Ethan decided to park his car,a bit away from the hospital to ensure that no one watches them together. She walks up to him,her hands cradling his face as she presses their lips together. He smiles as he feels her lips curling up against his. Ethan wraps his hands around her waist to secure her position. Pulling away a bit,he whispers,"We'll continue this later,Casey. Let's go". She nods in response,and Ethan opens the door for the passangers seat,helping her in. Once,he's inside too,he joins their hand together.
A peceful ride later,Ethan pulls up in the garage of his apartment complex. He steps out,opening the door of her side. Ethan gestures her to come out,but instead,Casey holds her hands up, curling them around his neck. "What is this supposed to mean,Rookie?" He asks,his body bent in a akward position. "Can you give me a lift to your home? I'm so tired! I can't walk like this..." She masters puppy-dog eyes and a sweet baby like voice. Ethan internally groans, 'She's going to be the death of me! I can't carry her around like this always! This is -' his trail of inner thoughts are snapped as she whines,"Please... I won't ask you anymore if you feel uncomfortable! Just this once!" Ethan grunts,"Fine! You win!" He picks her up,her legs automatically encircling around his waist. As he continues his (theirs) journey,he hears her,murmuring sofly,"You're so warm. And you smell so good. Can I stay like this all night?" This earns a chuckle from him. "If you stay like this all night, who'll make the dinner,huh? Don't get me wrong,I would love it,but it's quite a hard wish to fullfil." Casey pouts,but agrees anyway. Ethan reaches for the door-lock,and unlocks it. He puts her down once inside,smoothing her crumpled clothes. She pecks him softly on the lips,"Thank you so much for the ride!" Ethan grins, "It was my pleasure. You'll get a much more fun ride later if you behave properly." He crosses the threshold quickly,undoing his tie and shirt. She trots up to him, "Can I help?" He rolls his eyes,shaking his head, "No,Rookie. I am capable of doing this myself." She huffs,crossing arms her chest,"You're no fun!" "You'll see later sweetie. I'll show you how much fun I can be!" He winks, pressing his lips to her forehead. She looks up,her eyes gleaming with mischief. "Okay...I'll hold you to that!" With one last kiss,Ethan heads to take a shower,whilst she runs in the leaving room. Slumping on the comfy leather couch,she pulls her leggings down. 'Now I feel comfortable enough to annoy him for the rest of night!' She giggles to herself as the thought crosses her.
